I believe as Christian that soon many souls would fall out of faith and and/or may be hard for the church to convert new souls if the fashion taken by especially prosperity gospel preachers continue, unless we believers still follow the bible as dogma without questioning things.
This Otabil receives free money from the poor and then build university that charges higher than government making profits without paying taxes and call it 'charity'. Their sort of big men pastors hop from one expensive place to another where toilet facilities are always available so they cannot understand why the poor who sponsor them to enjoy 'pee' on walls and cannot afford toilets.
Yes, they may have reduced themselves to animals by faith without necessarily making their 'heads' to work, in the sense that if they 'pee' on streets then how are they increased or blessed to pay tithes for pastors to pee in limousines? The trees have already began to show their fruits, he who has eyes has seen it long time.
Honestly as believers, do we see our tithes spend on the widows, orphans, strangers, poor, etc just as the bible says?

I once saw a Ghanaian overseer of a popular charismatic church urinating on a wall here in France whilst there was a public toilet just close to him. How do I rate this pastor who says he has the holy spirit and he even baptise Ghanaians(women) in Ghana in their washing basins(bathes) with his dirty hands? Ghanaians in France have troubles with these false men of God in our mists.Watch out and dont allow them in your appartements for they will take your wife and children by convincing your wife that you are demon possessed.They only see what is the eyes of others whilst what is their eyes have made them blind.

That's so gross. When you're going out and won't be back for a couple of hours drink very little water and other fluids and eat just enough to sustain your body hours before you leave home. Some amount of self restraint and discipline is needed to avoid embarassment and public ridicule. We can all help to keep our towns, cities and communities clean and healthy. I think law enforcement should start prosecute people who pee and defecate in public as a deterrent to future offenders. Public littering must attract heavy fines or imprisonment to deter people with bad habit.

Established A University College but lacks analytical skills. We (demean) not (devalue) ourselves. This is societal hygiene problem which has to be addressed from National policy standpoint, formal and informal education and through general family values and training. Not everything has to be SPIRITUALIZED. Do you know that drinking ALCOHOL (Akpeteshie) in any Public place is against Ghana Laws. Nkrumah regime enforced all these laws including urination in public places. Address the issue from public health perspective please. Give us a BREAK with all these "SPIRIT OF....SPIRIT OF" Thanks.

I respect pastor otabil but he has crossed the line with his analysis. I believe he must educatevin love than comparing people to animals.
The problem of urinating in public is Ghana's leadership problem. The people entrusted with city planning and urban development are basically reckless. The bibles says that where there is no vision the people will perish. Our leaders don't have vision for the nation and the people car confused as to where they can use the toilet and bathroom when in the city. Does it make them look and act like animals? I don't think so! In life everyone want something better even the most uneducated.

Help me out here. In the US there is nothning like "public" bathrooms/restrooms (as we think of them in Ghana). The so-called public bathrooms/restrooms in the US are after all not "public" because they're part of the facilities of the business/company/service being rendered at that particular place. For example we have bath/rest rooms at airports, fast food joints, parks, amusement places, store, etc. These are all part of the companies' facilities. There is nothing like an isolated building or place you can find as a public restroom, so in some sense they're not 'public". In Ghana the government runs public toilet/restrooms, but they are not clean. It's bad idea for gov't to run such a facility. We should encourage businesses in Ghana to include rest/bathrooms as part of their facilities.

The solution to this problem however, is not for the government to construct public places of convinience. To solve this problem of citizens urinating and defacating in public places, our paliamentarians need to do their job and pass bills compelling all peolple who do business or provide services to the general public to as a mandate make available such places of convinience for the the public they serve.

In my father's country farm, there is no running water, and no septic toilets! No, no. In many town houses in Ghana there is no running water, and no septic toilets. The citizens dig open pit toilets about 100 meters from the last home on the outskirts of town. The people manage to use the toilets to defecate, but it is not convenient to walk over a hundred meters just to urinate, so everybody, including the women, urinate in the nearest bush, or on the wall as you choose to call it. Are you trying to say you have authority from God to call all people who live in such situations as animals?
Please exercise some circumspection before using you position to make such pronouncements, because they may be interpreted wrongly by you audience. The fact that we all do not have the same facilities that pertain to the Western World does not in any way make us less human.

Mensa Otabil is crude , ugly and poor in thinking. Fools may follow fools. But his conduct cannot be that of God fearing man. He is fake , a trickster and servant of satan. No sane man let elone a true pastor would be so insulting and pretending to know better. This is a man whose inhamanity drove member of his bogus ministry , to hang himself dead inside his temple in Accra , Ghana. Otabil uses distorted word of God , to deceive and extort money , property and food from poor followers. He has no sane education background. He is not a doctor of any discipline.

Otabil passed out of Sewedru Secondary School. Not a good student student of any special kind. And promoted himself a pastor. He lacks basic pastoral understanding and has distorted view of Scripture. He is just like many who use the name of God to dupe , impoverish and accumulate capital and wealth. He has ever Urinated in public , on the walll and ground. Let him say no to this. Now that he has succeed deceiving many and has become rich with paper money and material things , he thinks he is better than any who may have to ease themselve in public place. Time will tell.

If indeed he did, then this advise goes for him. In fact it goes to all of us. But the has washrooms around else its impossible withheld the charge of the urine and I don't presume Otabil wants people to keep it and burst their bladder... In the villages is the custom and norm. You dare not go to the bathroom to urinate. Your urinary place is the bush or the by side of a rock or gutter or behind the house. Its all has to do with the level of infrastructural development and citizen responsibility which comes which comes with education and punitive action

Two men walk into a bar, one wearing Rev Owusu Bempah hat and the other wearing a Rev Joshua hat. The guy in the Joshua cap approaches Otabil the bartender and make a bet: "I'll bet you $1,000 that I can put a shot glass at one end of your bar and piss into it from the other end of the bar without spilling a drop."
Otabil the bartender laughs and says, "You're crazy, but you're on."
The man positions a shot glass on one end, walks to the other end and unzips his fly. He then pisses everywhere -- all over the walls, over the bar top, all over the bottles of booze, and all over the bartender. The bartender roars with laughter and tells the man to pay up.
The guy in the Rev Joshua cap pays up, laughing and smiling, too
"What are you smiling at?" asks the Otabil the bartender. "You just lost $1,000!"
"Well, you see that guy in the Owusu Bempah hat over there crying? Before we came in, I bet him $10,000 that I could piss all over your bar, your walls, your liquor AND you, and not only would you not be mad -- you would laugh hysterically about it!"

Mr. Reverend, you will do a lot better advocating in favor of our communities planning and building decent 'restrooms' and places of convenience for the population than to blame us for the immoral slave trade that has nothing to do with our present hygienic deficiencies. Start with your congregation. Ask them to help build clean places of conveniences in their communities to to cater for 'nature's calls'

How does Dr Otabil reconcile that thought on his mind at the time to his utterances today.Having said that,until the Country is developed to conduct itself in such areas,please give us a break ! and let the people feel free.

He is right...I have seen men in Ghana pull out their pricks and piss along the road-side facing traffic, in the wide-open. No shame or respect for others. Plenty people are toileting in black plastic bags and tossing it along the roadside or in the bushes near people's residences. We won't even mention the beaches...full of human waste in the sand. Besides, plastic tossed all over the community pollutes the environment in ways you can't imagine. It talks a century for plastic to erode to nothing.
Create public portable toilets across Ghana to gain income for folks in need of an income. They whom will charge a small amount, keep them sanitized and keep waste trunks coming to empty them every few days. Such increases employment in the country. regardless of fellow Ghanaians negative stereo-type words an entrepreneur will hear. In the end, better pockets full than always empty...money-less.

You pay your tithes and offerings willingly with no gun to your head.There's no excuse for you to pee and defecate in public. Law enforcement should start prosecuting offenders and all who litter indiscriminately. Those who live in the world's big cities and towns are people like you and I but the difference is over there most of their citizens are law abiding and those who happen to break the laws are prosecuted as a deterrent. Back home people break the laws with impunity but don't want to face prosecution. Otabil is right. You must practise good eating habits hours before you set off especially if you have a weak bladder.

INFACT AS A MAN OF GOD AS YOU CLAIME U ARE AND A MOTIVATIONAL SPEAKER, I THINK YOU CAN ALSO DO SOMETHING TO ERADICATE THIS ANIMALISTIC BEHAVIOUR AMONG GHANAIANS, ESPECIALLY IN AN AREA WHERE THE ACT OF URINATING ON THE WALL AND DEFECATING AROUND IS ENDOWED.... YOU GOT A BIG CHURCH AND MEMBERS DO OFFER TITH AND OFFERINGS... AND OUT OF THIS MONIES I THINK YOU CAN USE EVEN LITTLE OF IT TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM AND FOLLOW IT WITH A GREAT CAUSION.. AS YOU ARE TALKING RIGHT NOW, GETTING ACCESS TO THE URINAL PLACES AND OTHER PLACES OF CONVINIENCE IS NEVER AN EASY TASK IN ACCRA AND OTHER CITIES... PEOPLE WITH TIGHT BUDGET CAN NEVER AFFORD TO PAY FOR URINATING AND DEFECATING, SO WE AS INDIVIDUALS SHOULD DO SOMETHING LITTLE TO PREVENT THIS EMBARASING SITUATIION WITH THE LITTLE WE HAVE... SO MR. OTABIL CONTINUE WITH THE CAUSIONING AND NEVER FORGET TO BE DOING SOMETHING TO ERADICATE IT COMPLETELY..

Go on to say that these same white slave buyers were xtians and that their trade was endorsed by the church and governments of Europe both Orthodox and protestant.
The Portuguese for example were backed by the roman catholic church on their slavery business , in fact their most famous slave king King John the pious, was known to be deeply religious and a fundamental christian who was always surrounded by priests and with bible on hand. He was so pious he never married. He also requested the establishment of the Inquisition in Portugal in 1547 and directed the construction of slave factorys in africa to supply Brazil with slaves. This man was a deeply religious xtian and slave trader!!! Otabil is a self hating African who exalts the same religion that enslaved his forefathers and continues to enslave him. He should shut up about "spirit of devaluation".
And it's equally animals who plan and build cities and towns without places of convenience.
Elinam, you've said it all. Otabil should have been speaking his Revelations to the governments of Ghana - past and present, military, civilian or hybrid. We call it Nature's Call for a reason. If I can't find a place, I will ...

Where else do we pee? No toilets, no bathroom and you expect us to behave as if we are living abroad? Look, we go shit and pee around aaa, until the govt build proper and big shito and urinal places
WHAT IS "PUBLIC"? OTABIL AND OTHERS LIKE HIM CAN AFFORD TO INSULT GHANAIANS. THEY HAVE DENIED PAYING TAXES TO FILL THE COFFERS OF THESE CHALATANS WITH TITHES.NOW THEY ARE RICH, SO THEY INSULT US.
Otabil .Sir why don't you start by building public urinals ? Your church could sponsor this.
By what Rev. Otabil is saying, then the best person to talk to would be his buddy Nana Addo, who went up north to 'pee' on the wall of a Mosque.
I guess he has just forgotten.

Sub-human not sub-animal behaviour
Im suprise that people r against Otabil.they should go 2 Accra and Cape Coast beaches and see how human are deficating like pigs. that is why cholera is severe in these regions.
Our greatest enemy is Lack of Proper Hygiene. If we don't keep our env't clean, malaria, typhoid n CHOLERA will kill all of us. Pastor Mensah Otabil, continue feeding our minds.
Otabil, if u can keep ur urine in ur body for long, I can't, it doesn't mean u're more human than me. Don't insult Gods children .
the pastor's message is a complete education for these colonial mentality down grading people. JJ Rawlings has said it before what did you say to him???
Defecating and urinating in a toilet is colonial mentality ? People all over the world want to improve themseleves but not the blackman. You live like animals and are responsibel for Cholera and now Ebola. Filthy people !
